R.E.P. Industries, Inc. (REP) was acquired by Richard E. Penniman in 1967. At that time the company manufactured filters, checkwriters and miscellaneous house ware products. Richard Penniman was trained as an accountant (Lehigh University) and as an attorney (University of Pennsylvania). Richard had worked in the construction industry, and as a controller for a large printer. One of his dreams was to start a family business which he could pass on to his sons.

In 1989 Richard passed the business on to his oldest son Craig and his younger brother Scott. Craig retired in 1994 after a long battle with Muscular Dystrophy. Scott continued on as President of REP Industries.

The following is a reply from REP Industries to our question – "Are your products Made in the USA?"

How do you know the products you have listed are Made in the USA?
Before including products in our database we review the advertiser’s website and/or contact them to ascertain the origin of their products. Some advertisers sell both Made in USA products and foreign ones. Therefore we highly recommend you review FAQ 2.

We immediately investigate any complaints regarding deceptive Country of Origin claims. If we determine an advertiser's claim is not truthful we will immediately remove the product/s from our database and suspend our relationship with the Company making the claim.

To document your complaint, email us by using our Contact Us page. We can only respond to complaints that have been submitted in writing.

What does Made in USA mean?
There is no law requiring most products to be labeled Made In USA, or have any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes (see our Big Secret tab), if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on its label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. This is true because the product without the country origin on its label has at least some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not.

Note: Imported products are required by law to country of origin on their label and products partially Made In USA do not. To answer this question completely reviewing our Labeling Tips 1, 2 & 3. These tips are accessible from scrolling to the bottom of our home page clicking Browse All Tips button.
